The Oven Buddy-cooking assistant for precision ovens.

Example

If a user asks how to cook a medium-rare steak, The Oven Buddy recommends sous vide mode at 55°C with 0% steam for a perfectly even cook, followed by a high-heat sear using the top heating element.

Scenario

A user may want to replicate a restaurant-quality steak. The Oven Buddy will suggest cooking the steak at a low temperature with the sous vide function, ensuring an edge-to-edge doneness. Afterward, the user can follow the suggestion to sear using the top heating element at high heat for a crispy exterior.

Example

For baking sourdough bread, The Oven Buddy recommends 220°C with steam ON for the first 10 minutes to promote a crispy crust, then steam OFF for the remainder of the bake to create a golden finish.

Scenario

A user might struggle to get the perfect rise and crust for their sourdough. The Oven Buddy ensures the steam levels are appropriately set during the early stages of baking, giving the bread enough moisture to expand before the crust forms.

Example

When roasting vegetables, The Oven Buddy might suggest setting the rear heating element with a high fan speed at 200°C, using 10% steam to prevent drying.

Scenario

Roasting vegetables can be tricky, as they often dry out before becoming properly browned. The Oven Buddy configures the oven to use just enough steam and optimal fan speed to lock in moisture while achieving a desirable roast.
